""Old Christmas"" is a short story by the renowned American author, Washington Irving. The story is set in an English countryside during the early 19th century and revolves around the celebration of the traditional English holiday of Christmas. The story is narrated by the author himself, who describes the various customs and traditions associated with Christmas celebrations in rural England.The story follows the author's journey to a quaint English village, where he is welcomed by a group of hospitable locals who are preparing for the Christmas festivities. The author observes the various customs and traditions of the villagers, including the decoration of the village church, the exchange of gifts, and the singing of carols.Throughout the story, Irving portrays the warmth and joy of the Christmas season, as well as the spirit of community and togetherness that is central to the celebration. The author also highlights the importance of preserving traditional customs and rituals, which he believes are essential to maintaining a sense of cultural identity and heritage.Overall, ""Old Christmas"" is a heartwarming and nostalgic portrayal of the traditional English Christmas celebration, as seen through the eyes of a beloved American author. It is a must-read for anyone who loves Christmas, history, and cultural traditions.Here he is generally surrounded by an admiring throng of hostlers, stable-boys, shoe-blacks, and those nameless hangers-on that infest inns and taverns, and run errands, and do all kinds of odd jobs, for the privilege of battening on the drippings of the kitchen and the leakage of the tap-room. These all look up to him as to an oracle; treasure up his cant phrases.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
